SOPHIE SHE WAS SLIGHTLY DOWN ON HER TIMES FOR THIS ONE WHICH SOMETIMES HAPPENS. HAVING SAID THAT SHE KNEW THAT HER TURNS WERE NOT THE BEST SO WORK TO BE DONE ON THEM .SHE DID HOWEVER SWIM A GREAT 200 IM .AND STILL GIVES HER ALL IN HER SWIMS SO NO NEED TO PANIC ALL WILL BE WELL.
JESS POSTED REASONABLE TIMES ON HER SWIMS AND IS PROGRESSING OF THAT THERE IS NO DOUBT. WE HAVE BEEN WORKING ON HER LEFT SIDE FOR HER FLY WHICH IS CAUSING ISSUES ON HER FLY AND IM BUT I HAVE A PLAN TO SORT THIS OUT AGAIN NO NEED TO PANIC
HAMISH HAD AN OUTSTANDING MORNING ON ALL HIS SWIMS INCLUDING HIS FIRST 200 IM THOUGHT HIS PARENTS WERE IN SHOCK WHEN THEY REALISED HE WAS SWIMMING THAT EVENT. HAMISH IS ONE STRONG LADDY AND HE PROVED HOW FAR HE HAS PROGRESSED SINCE JOINING SCORPIONS.
STELLA HAD TWO FIFTY METER SWIMS AND DOMINATED BOTH OF THEM AGAIN SHOWING HOW VERSATILE SHE IS COPING WITH TWO SPORTS SWIMMING AND DIVING. ALWAYS HAS A SMILE ON HER FACE AND NO WONDER SHE IS A CLASS ACT
SCOTT PRODUCED TWO EXCELLENT SWIMS ON HIS 50 METRE EVENTS AND HIS STAMINA IS NOW VASTLY IMPROVED AND ONCE AGAIN HE HAS SHOWED WHAT IS POSSIBLE WHEN YOU TRAIN HARDER SO WELL DONE SCOTT.
CORRIE PROBABLY HAD THE MORNING SESSION OF HER LIFE AS SHE WAS OUTSTANDING ON ALL HER SWIMS ESPECIALLY THE 100 IM WHERE THE WORK DONE ON HER FLY ENABLED A GREAT START AND THEN SHE JUST POWERED ON FROM THERE. DESPITE BEING TIRED SHE SAID SHE WANTED A SPLIT OF 39 IN THE RELAY AND WENT 39 HIGH MUCH TO HER DELIGHT. I THINK CORRIE HAS STRETCHED IN HEIGHT WHICH HELPS. HAVING SAID THAT SHE IS FINDING SPEED AND ALL GOES WELL FOR THE FUTURE.
FREYA IS LEARNING REALLY FAST AND NOW HAS IMPROVED ON ALL HER STROKES . A LOT OF WORK HAS BEEN DONE ON HER FLY AND WHILST WE ARE NOT QUITE SORTED YET THIS WILL COME GOOD SOON I HAVE NO DOUBT AT ALL. SHE ALSO PRODUCED A GOOD SPLIT TIME IN THE RELAY .ALSO DID NOT GET DISQUALIFIED SO WELL DONE FREYA.
LOLA IS ALSO IMPROVING WITH HER ARM SPEED SLOWLY GETTING BETTER AND THIS WILL MAKE A HUGE DIFFERENCE TO HER TIMES. LOLA NEVER GIVES UP AND GIVES HER ALL NO MATTER WHATVEVENT SHE IS PUT IN FOR. KEEP UP THE HARD TRAINING LOLA AND IT WILL BASH YOUR TIMES TO BITS.
MICAEL TRAINS HIS SOCKS OFF EVERY SESSION AND HIS TIMES SHOW IT IN THE SWIMMING GALAS. I INSTRUCTED HIM TO GO OUT ON 1.13 FOR HIS FIRST 100 ON HIS 200 FREE AND HE WENT OUT 1.11 WHICH ALL BODES WELL FOR BREAKING THROUGH THE 1.10 BARRIER ON HIS 100 FREE. YOU ARE A SWIMMING MACHINE LOL.
LEWIS IS AN ENIGMA IN THAT HE EITHER SMASHES HIS PBS OR HAS A SLIGHTLY OFF DAY WHICH THIS WAS. HOWEVER THE TIMES WERE STILL OK BUT THIS BOY HAS TALENT AND WILL BOUNCE BACK EVEN STRONGER OF THAT I HAVE NO DOUBT
WILLIS HE TRIED HIS HEART OUT ON HIS SWIMS POSTING GOOD TIMES HE HOWEVER ADMITTED THAT HE MADE TWO MANY ERRORS ON HIS 100 FLY WHICH IS A PITY AS IT WAS LOOKING FOR LONG ENOUGH TO BE A GREAT SWIM. AGAIN WILLIS WILL COME GOOD SHORTLY THERE IS NO DOUBT.
RUARIDH GREAT TIME ON HIS BACKSTROKE MORE OR LESS CARRYING ON THIS MASSIVE IMPROVEMENT ON ALL HIS STROKE TIMES. HOWEVER THE DQ ON THE BREASTROKE WAS HARD TO TAKE AS THIS WAS THE SECOND TIME ON THIS STROKE WHERE HE WAS HEADING FOR A FAST TIME. I WILL CHAT WITH HIM IN TRAINING ABOUT THIS.
TIM PRODUCED A VERY FAST TIME ON HIS 200 IM BUT THIS WAS TOTALLY NOT THE HIGHLIGHT AS HIS ENTRY TIME ON HIS 100 FLY WAS 1.39 APROX AND HE WENT AND DID 1.15 WHICH WAS QUITE FRANKLY SIMPLY OUTSTANDING. SO DEFO THE SWIM OF THE DAY.
THERE YET AGAIN WERE A NUMBER OF SWIM TEAM RECORDS BROKEN WHICH I WILL BOX OF SEPARATELY ONCE VERIFIED. THERE IS MUCH WORK TO BE DONE HOWEVER ON STAMINA TURNS FOR SURE AND STARTS AND ONCE MORE GOING THROUGH WHAT THE RULES ARE ON ALL STROKES IN ORDER TO NULIFY ANY FUTURE DISQUALIFICATIONS. DESPITE THIS WE ARE DEFINITELY A FORCE TO BE RECKONED WITH AND A BIG THANK YOU TO ALL THE SWIMMERS AND ALSO THE GREAT BACKING FROM ALL PARENTS.
